In one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War, fought at Sharpsburg, Maryland, on September 17, 1862, four times as many ( Americans were killed as) would later be killed on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day.
1)
2) Americans were killed than
3) Americans were killed than those who
4) more Americans were killed as there
5) more Americans were killed as those who
I guess A is right because "as an adverb" means to the same degree or amount, right?

(1) seems the best
because it correctly uses the AS...AS... structure
and because in options (4) and (5) the word "more" seems to be redundant

easy A...
introduction of more in other choices makes them wrong.
